Contestants would use "Airsoft guns, ammo and touch-sensitive body armor for a three-day event". Combatants would be competing for a $130,590 prize jackpot.

  • competitors would spend three days on the island with 12-hours of gameplay each
  • participants would be camping at night with all necessary food and equipment provided
